I've gone to my farm in Kentucky for the weekend. It's a great place to relax, do a little hard physical labor, and forget about the rest of the world. If you don't have such a place, I highly suggest you get one.
In the meantime, here's a little something that I found for you to read with your morning coffee.
See you on Monday.

still thinking about today...
The hard part about napping is that, by the time you've managed to fall asleep, it's time to wake up. Very frustrating!
"Hindus and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve to one. But Englishmen detest a siesta." -- Sir Noel Coward
Zzzzzz...Zzzzzzz....Zzzzzz.....Zzzzzz........
My concept of a good night's sleep is someone else's "power nap".
And thinking of Noel Coward, he also said in that same song that only "Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun". Today, I ran an 8 mile race some time after the Mid-Day sun. I can't help it, I guess I'm still an Englishman at heart!
Now I'm going to get my "power nap"....see y'all in a couple of hours!
No trouble with the idea of "la sieste" in my neck of the woods! Especially as the summer heat is on. You can only do so much in the hot part of the day, if you are out in it.
Speaking of which: farewell for now, friends - we are off to Corsica for a couple of weeks. Gros bisous!
It's humorous. As children, naps meant we had not yet reached "adulthood"...
As an adult, a nap symbolizes my ability to be a child and take a little snooze... especially with a good thunder storm about.
I'm fortunate in that I can close my eyes and be asleep in a minute or two, anyplace and in any position. It's a useful skill acquired during my internship and residency. These days, flights are my favorite place to nap. I haven't been awake for a takeoff in years.
